I'm curious if you think Trump is starting off as a 2nd term president or is he coming in more like a first term? I understand that in his mind he's "God-Emperor of Dune" but that's his psych issues talking. As far as the Ds assessing what it all means, in my memory I have to go back to 2004 to recall so many takes that suggest the Ds will never win another election while at the same time seemingly feeling no need to explain how's that's the obvious interpretation given Trump <50% and a 1.5% lead over Kamala along with the Ds picking up a seat or two in the House.
